Science

Understanding of the Cosmos; vision of reality.

Intellectually science is Reason applied to ideas entertaining the Mind. Modern Western Science seems to be little more than belief in different theories shifting with available evidence or lack thereof, such as the now defunct theory of evolution. In current popular usage the word science seems to assume materialism, which in turn is founded on selective scepticism with atheism at its core. In this modern interpretation science has become a repressive ideology, rather than the liberating voice of reason it could have been.
